Greg Olsen (back) intends to play Thursday for Panthers
Carolina Panthers tight end Greg Olsen (back) plans to play on Thursday night against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
What It Means:
Olsen says he got "jacked up" in the Panthers' season-opening loss to the Los Angeles Rams and conceded the short week isn't ideal, so his availability isn't guaranteed. Ian Thomas would take over at tight end if Olsen sits. The veteran had 36 yards on 4 catches (9 targets) in Week 1.
Assuming Olsen plays, numberFire's models project him for 7.8 FanDuel points, at a cost of $5,400, in Week 2. He's the TE12 in our weekly fantasy rankings.
